WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Representative Randy Feenstra has expressed approval following the passage of the VETS Safe Travel Act. This legislation aims to provide disabled veterans with access to the TSA PreCheck Program without any cost.

Rep. Feenstra stated, "As grateful Americans, it is critical that we provide our veterans with the benefits that they have earned and deserve. From high-quality healthcare to other helpful resources, I believe that we should jump at every opportunity to give back to our nation’s heroes." He further added, "That’s why I’m glad that the U.S. House of Representatives unanimously passed legislation to give our disabled veterans free TSA PreCheck – a well-deserved convenience when traveling through our airports."

The act is seen as a gesture of appreciation for the sacrifices made by veterans in defense of the nation. Rep. Feenstra emphasized this sentiment by saying, "Our veterans have made incredible sacrifices in defense of our nation, and this is just one small way that we can show our appreciation to these heroes and their families."
